Custom sewing and Alterations

Professional Alterations for Every Occasion

From prom to everyday wear, I offer quality alterations with your budget in mind. I’ll always try to suggest options that save money and extend the life of your clothing. For example, with kids’ clothes, I often leave extra fabric in the hem or seams to allow room for growth.

Sample Pricing

  • Basic pant hem (machine): $10
  • Euro hem on jeans (original hem): $15
  • Suit jacket sleeve shortening (conditions apply): $35
  • Suit pant hem (blind hem, machine): $10
  • Dress hem (single layer): starting at $45 (depending on skirt width)

Fittings are by appointment only and take place in my home in Stittsville, ON. The exact address will be provided upon booking.

If those times don’t work, feel free to reach out—I can usually accommodate.

Hockey Name Bars

Each fall, I sew hockey name bars and donate 50% of proceeds to a local charity. For 2025, I’ll be donating to Rock Out for Jack.

  • House league bars: $5
  • Competitive jerseys: $7 (more time involved)

Text 613-355-6225 or email to arrange drop-off.


A Few Notes

  • I do not alter wedding dresses.
  • Be cautious with low-cost garments ordered directly from overseas—they’re often difficult or impossible to alter, which can increase costs or make alterations unfeasible.
  • If possible, prewash and dry garments before your fitting.
  • For fittings, bring the shoes and undergarments you plan to wear with the outfit—especially for dresses or pants.
